Enable Channels for 12, 13

Thx cybersnper!
Really needed this but there seem to be some typos in what you did here. The problems I am had are the following.

After the first typo on the tar xvzj wireless-regdb-2008.11.17.tar.bz2 – Just a typo. I make the make the dir “crdu” under /usr/lib/ … cool cool. From the untared folder I just copy the new regulatory.bin to the new /usr/lib/crda folder , np.

This is where I don't quite follow you. I now go into /usr/lib/crda and run

make && make install ? All that is in there is the regulatory.bin that I cp over into that folder. Can't find any subdirectory “udev”under crda ether.

I tried this using the same exact wireless-regdb-2008.11.17.tar.bz2 (not the newest one) that you used on BT4.

Channels 12,13 CRDA is not called by kernel?

Thx cybr! Reads like a charm now!
Was wondering if you are having the same problems as I have. Everything works fine until I reboot. Then all falls to default. Working off a 32GB USB...yeah I can save. After a quick look it would seem that the kernel is having problems speaking to the userspace events. Or that CRDA is not called right. I am not really sure.

played a little with to see what was up etc.

# udevadm monitor --environment kernel

I can fix this by just doing the following at every reboot # cp regulatory.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/85-regulatory.rules

# iw reg set SE

This one has me stumped. Any ideas?

Best to ya!

I haven't noticed any problem. The rules are still in the /etc/udev/rules.d folder after reboot. I'm in the U.S. so I never worried about how to get it to set to a different regulatory domain permanently. I would guess that you could put the "iw reg set SE" statement into rc.local though.

I'm assuming of course that you are using a distro build that allows changes (i.e. not a live CD/USB).

lol you are assuming right I am using a 16 GB USB that I can save on. No big deal if I quickly need to chuck it into the microwave. I am sure I did something bionicly retarded when I borked the first install. Actully I just only have to do the " iw reg set SE" part.

All the best
onryo!
